The Island of Shehkah is the starting location for newly created characters in the Nightfall campaign, spawning here after completing the character creation process. This is considered the tutorial area for Nightfall characters, and as such, characters are not able to return to this location after they leave. See the notes section below.

[edit] Dialogue

When leveling up

Kormir: Your attributes enhance your abilities in numerousYour mouse pointer over an attribute to learn what it can do for you.

Kormir: You currently have a rank of zero in all attributes. Click on the up arrow to the right of any attribute to increase the rank of that attribue by one. The number inside the arrow indicates how many attribute points you must spend to increase the rank of the attribute. Try assigning your attribute points now.

Kormir: Enough talk for now. [Character Name], go speak with First Spear Jahdugar, and then we will enter the village.

[edit] Notes

• Once you leave this area, you cannot ever return. When your character is first created, this is the only chance of mapping this area. Thus nonNightfall characters can never visit.
• Fully exploring this area amounts to 0.8% of Elona. The area can only be explored fully during the "Rally the Recruits" tutorial; the "Take the shortcut" quest does not allow access to the eastern area of the island beyond the resurrection shrine (restricting exploration to only 0.5%). It should be noted that the Elonian Cartographer title can still be maxed without fully exploring this area.
• Resigning in this area causes you to reload the area, since you do not start with a town available.
